Ummm, he just calls you BOO.....

And he doesn't even know your WHOLE name!!!!!!! When I first heard that song, I was stunned. And what gets me is that people actually like it, especially females. I don't have to listen to or know the rest of th song because just that part alone says so much (just my personal opinion). So sir, you don't know my whole name? Oh okay,  you aren't worthy enough to be in my space then.......is what alot of females should be saying. The sad part is that many young women dance to it, laugh at it, and think its cute, but in actuality the "guy" is saying that your name isn't even worth remembering! So is it cute now?

Ladies, do you REALLY want to be a "boo" to a man that doesn't know your name? Don't you know that you're so much more valuable than that? You have a name and if he can't remember it and respect the woman in you, then it says alot about him. BUT....we can't solely put the blame on the guys because our ladies don't respect themselves either. Society has given many of our young women permission to degrade themselves, and because they aren't being raised properly, they are becoming victims of explicit acts that will have an affect on them forever.I didn't want this post to be a long one, but I hope it enlightens the minds/hearts of the readers.
LOL! WOW....and this is how some guys feel about our young ladies!

Even if this small bit of advice doesn't necessarily hit home with you, share it with someone. We as women must teach our young ladies that they are more precious than anything. Money, cars, houses, clothes, jewelry, trips, etc. are not enough to buy them. Regardless if its common or not, your God-given birth name is what sets you apart. So if someone is just that "high & mighty" to the point they can't love, respect, & cherish your name just as God does, then why in the world do you even want them to be apart of your life? My sister, you are BEAUTIFUL. If he can't remember your name but just calls you Boo, then that means you're not important enough to him because if you were, he'd remember almost everything about you and then even try to learn some more.

Though I know "boo" is a common nickname that many people refer to others as (even I do it), I surely won't just call you that because I don't know your name, lol. At least I'll have the decency to ask you what your name is again before continuing to call you boo over and over again, lol. But seriously ladies, your name should be one of the first things people remember about you. If you allow young men to degrade you & continue calling you things other than that, then it says alot about you. You are VALUABLE....you are WORTHY....and you ARE AWESOME! If a young man can't see the greatness inside of you, then he doesn't DESERVE to know your name in the first place!

Thanks for reading :-)

  2. I haven't heard the song you're talking about but I totally agree with you here.
    It also irritates me that ladies allow random guys to call them "baby", "sweetie" etc. What happened to "ma'am"?
    Great post!!!
